Problem: Current rundll32 documentation contains incorrect information and lacks information about the syntax.
Example: Currently, the doc claims that rundll32 loads only 32bit DLLs which is untrue, I have tested with a 64bit Windows 10 machine and when rundll32 is ran regularly is loads 64bit DLLs and when it is ran through SysWow64 like so for example
C:\Windows\SysWow64\rundll32 kernel32,Beep
it of course uses 32bit DLLsHere is a screenshot from procexp that shows it uses the 64bit DLL:
